VA announces drive-thru flu shot clinics

  • 0
flu season
By Mandy Robertson

POPLAR BLUFF (WSIL) -- The John J. Pershing VA Medical Center in Poplar Bluff will again offer multiple opportunities for Veteran patients to receive their influenza vaccinations this season.

According to Ashley Aubuchon, VA Health Promotion/Disease Prevention Program Manager, drive-thru flu shot clinics will be offered daily on weekdays at Poplar Bluff from September 22 to October 8 between the hours of 8:00 a.m. and 3:00 p.m.  

“Vaccination is the surest way to protect against getting the flu, and given the ongoing pandemic, it is especially important for our Veterans to get their (free) flu shots,� Aubuchon said.  “The drive-thru clinic makes it really easy - all they need to do is drive up and look for the tent; they won’t even have to get out of their vehicles.  Last year this was a very popular option�

Additional (walk-in) clinics will be held in Cape Girardeau on these dates between the hours of 8:00 a.m. and 3:00 p.m.
